Simply not being a dick. Acting a little nicely to people, and consciously realising that they are beings with flaws and problems of their own. And generally providing entertainment/relief through art.

I help people overcome their fears. I help them to become more accepting of themselves. I help them cry, or laugh, if they need that. I like to think that I can help people believe in themselves. I help people deal with wounds. I don't do this professionally, but... I would very much like to. It's very hard shifting tracks in Germany, though. Our society is not really built around the concept of career change.

This is something that I struggle with. I tried to do it in a professional capacity, as a social worker to be specific, but I found that my tendency to take on all of the world's problems + the difficulty I have with expressing my emotions didn't lead to a good combination. Plus, I found it to be very confining to work within an agency / the system.

INFP tend to blend in, but they shouldn't fear putting power behind their convictions. For that one is courageous and challenges established tracks. But of course it is dangerous getting out of the comfort zone. Getting out of the comfort zone makes it bigger, then you can set an example to others and sharing your light.
